What would you use your tail for?

Asked by rebbel (35553points) July 8th, 2010

Suppose we, all of a sudden, wake up one morning with a tail attached to our bodies (you know, there where animals have one too).
This tail is a controllable one (like we also control our hands), so my question is this:
What would you use your tail for?
Slap someone? Use as a third ‘hand’?
What?

Honestly? Sexual things. Just like if I were to wake up in a guy’s body, I’d do sexual things all day. Imagine what feelings you could elicit having a third appendage…

Also I’d go around tapping people on the shoulder while putting up my hands in defense (“see, I’m not touching you!”), just to confuse them.

I would also do tail-ups.

Extra hand!

I would use it for keeping gnats and other insects away from my body. I would use it to emphasize my feelings: wag it when I’m happy; let it droop when I’m sad.

Use it to indicate my level of excitement in certain situations.

I would just wag it, you sickos!

A couple holding tails and walking on the beach would be a real Kodak moment!

For picking stuff up, like drinks, and for slapping people on the arse and pretending it wasn’t you! tee hee!

I could definitely see it’s advantage for below the waist stimulation which I was caressing and kissing the above the waist regions. Great even for rubbing inner thighs.

Of course it would be good for dusting furniture for those who disapprove of the above answer.

I would use it to hold the screwdriver while I put up blinds. Hold my bag while I write checks. Smack people in the back when they’re not looking.

@Dr_Lawrence Unless the tail was covered like a porcupine.
